In this episode, we will be failing and failing fast as the saying goes! So I am trying to CNC some coin art and not having the best luck with it was I broke 5 bits in the process and did not achieve the goal! However each step was a learning process in how to better my work flow!

Please visit www.DIY3DTech.com for more information on this and many other projects! As in this episode, we will be be making 3D printed “legs” for the 3040 Chip shield. While this is a rather simple project, it is also a handy project with several tips and tricks which we hope will inspire you in building your own projects!

As in this episode, we will be just doing a quick update on the 3040 CNC which I got a couple months back as over the holiday break I got it up and cutting! While there are many video’s are in the queue for this, just wanted to share a quick status update on this little beast as I am loving it!

Note: This video will be a little noisy on purpose as I wanted you guys to hear what this sounds like. While its loud, it is NO WHERE NEAR as LOUD as my other CNC! It really is rather quite in the larger scope so please bear with me on this one 🙂

As in this episode, we will be unboxing the 4th axis and electronics for the new eBay 3040 CNC Router from China we got in as its an amazing device with 800watt water cooled spindle and a 4th axis which make for some interesting experiments!

Correction: I state in the video the 800watt spindle has 1/8th Inch chuck, it is actually 1/4 inch.

Please visit www.DIY3DTech.com for more information on this and many other projects! As in this episode, we will be converting the 3040 CNC machine we purchased from eBay to use GRBL by simply adding a LPT DB25 G25 USB Adapter to the Arduino UNO (goo.gl/l7yd0I). This is a very simple and easy way to convert a 3020, 3040 or 3060 (in fact any parallel port / Mach 3 type machine) to GRBL!
